Afraid I will die being a vegetarian?" A vegetarian diet is as stated hard to die on, and being afraid means that you need to back up some, and do some research. A vegetarian diet can be healthy for many, but not for everyone.
This said now It's not hard to find all of the nutrients needed, especially on a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet. The only thing excluded is anything that comes from the death of an animal. A vegetarian diet can and usually also permits honey, to be used, as the honey bees are rarely ever killed.
Only the unethical beekeepers/apiarists do that,. And there aren't many, as they're frowned upon by the majority of beekeepers. On a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet, you can have dairy and eggs.
These are good lacto-ovo vegetarian sources for the essential micronutrient vitamin B12, and other nutrients, such as DHA, and EPA essential fatty acids. The rest though are easily obtainable from vegetable matter, though in some cases perhaps not as efficiently as through eating meat , poultry/fowl, and fish/seafood. Yet they're still there.
The main two vitamins to be concerned with are vitamins B12 and D. Vitamin B12 is available through meat, and animal products such as meat, dairy, and eggs. There are no known bioavailable forms of vitamin B12, that the body can use that comes from plant sources.
While there are possibly some plant analogs, for vitamin B12 they may do more harm than good as they may actually block/inhibit the body from properly absorbing the bioavailable form from meat, and animal products. Some foods such as some cold water fish, can even provide the much needed vitamin D3. There are only two known sources, one occurring naturally in the plant world lichen,the other is in certain mushrooms, but only if they've been exposed to light in the ultraviolet blue frequency.
While our bodies make vitamin D3 through exposure to the sun, in some cases either there's not enough exposure, or the body doesn't produce enough op it. Vitamin D is important to bone health and helping get calcium to the bones. The essential fatty acids especially omega three are also important in the omega three fatty acids are two important ones.
DHA and EPA. Our bodies can make DHA and EPA from ALA, but it's not very efficient. A rate of fifteen percent conversion rate, is found in those who are healthy at the high end.

Here are some of those which are also leafy green vegetables, asparagus, beet greens, chard, collard greens, garden cress, dandelion greens, kale, mustard greens, spinach, and water cress.
For those that can be healthy on a vegetarian diet, research is a big key. Research means knowing just more than the basics about nutrition, but where the various nutrients come from. A dietitian can be a great help in starting out, but with the internet, there are additional resources now available, that weren't just twenty years ago.
To find out what nutrients are in what foods, a simple search can be done using the following. Mustard greens nutritional value You can copy and paste that into a Google search then start looking for as complete a breakdown of what it contains, Then look for a site that has tables you can look at for the various nutrient contents. Also good if you can find one as I have, is one that allows you to select a weight measurement such as one ounce or one hundred grams, to work with.
That then gives you a base weight to compare other foods with, at the same weight. Now here are some links to get started with, learning about the various nutrient types. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential_... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ma...
You might die from being a vegetarian, but it would take a long time. You would, however, have to eat a really really bad vegetarian diet.. I have to wonder why you have put yourself on a diet about which you obviously know practically nothing. Did you not think to investigate how to make sure you eat well as a vegetarian?
Why don't you do that now? Google "vegetarian diet" and start reading.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
